4Hello Everyone!!!

This Friday, January 7, Verve is releasing some fabulous new sets and dies! To countdown to the release, we’re putting on a series of mini blog hops Tuesday through Thursday of this week to preview the new sets! And because a new release is something to celebrate, we’ve hidden a prize on one of the participating blogs each day! Just leave a little comment love as you hop around to be entered into a drawing to win that day’s featured stamps! Deadline for comment entries is 6PM Mountain Friday, January 7. Winners will be announced at our release party on Friday night!


Here is the big day....its my 1st project as Verve Guest Diva....YAY!!!!


Here is a sneak peek of the Sweet Treats set....absolutely Gorgeous!!!

This set co-ordinates with the Sweet Scallop  die and a fabulous new label die!!
I used Glitz Designs DP for this card  set!!


 The card sketch is from Technostamper....


Next up is another FAB set~~ Swirling Hearts...

Very Pretty set co-ordinates with Vintage Oval die ...speaking of the dies, Verve dies are not only  fabulous they also come in awesome storage pocket... love it!!
 I used Mojo Monday sketch sketch and MME~ Be-loved paper collection...it is one of my favorite!!!
I added lots of diamond dust for sparkle .... heart rhinestone and some silver pearls from Pizzazz Aplenty.

Last one is a thank you card......the Sweet Treats set is great for all year round stamping!!

Here is the gorgeous new die...love the shape, very classy!!
The lovely DP is from Basic Grey ~Curio collection. The sketch is from this week's Viva La Verve challenge.
